W aterson says on "most" of the issues be-
fore the people Mr.. Cleveland is in har-
mony with democratic principles. As
about the only principle that party is
known to entertain, is getting Office. this
may be considered authority for saying
that Mr.. Cleveland has turned out ma
jority of Republican Office holders, and
put Democrats in their places.

If Governor Martin had given his OWL
city little more attention, especially dur
ing the strike last year, and the affairs OF
Wichita little less this year, he might moi
now be under the painful necessity of using
the Associated Press to convince the state
that Atchison is all right Atchison always
was, and is still, more of rum hole than
Wichita, and the idea of Governor Martin
as governor taking up column of the As
soci ated Press space to defend his town
from charges is simply ridiculous. If
somebody was governor of Kansas, by the
Eternal, Atchison should have police COM
mission, petition or no petition.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS or THE
pHOM0GRAPH.

A Mr.. Tainter, who has long been as
soo;a.ed with Prof. Alexander Graham
of Bell Telephone fame, has taken up the
Edison phonograph at the point where
he left it, and developed it from q toy to
an article Of commercial value, accom-
plishins himself what Edison himself has
long hoped to do. The machine as per-
fected has been seen by number Of
gentlemen interested in such matters,
and before long it will be given to the
public. 1t is constructed on the same
principle as the phonograph, but with
different material, and instead Of giving
out squeaking. metallic sound, as when
the sheet OF tin-foil was used, it now
produces full, sonorous sound, which
can be distinctly heard and understood
in any part Of an ordinsry-sized room.
The conversation which person may
address to the graphophone is recorded
upon thin sheets Of wax, in the shape Of
a tube placed upon . cylinder. Que Of
these little tubes will hold 1000 words,
A merchant, for instance, who has forty
letters to answer, can Lit before one Of
these machines. turn the crank, and talk
his answers into the machine, which
records them upon the wax tube in the
same manner as the old phonograph.
Afterward one Of these little tubes can
be slipped of the cylinder and sent by
mail to any part Of the country. When
received it will only be necessary to put
the wax tube into q similar machine and
it will reproduce the words Of the ori-

AN INDIAN FAKIR.

Talking Of sleeping men," | was one
day on my way to Dholpurn, near Agra,
and when halting to rest our horses
heard casually "Jogi" Of some local
celebrity. who was in a neighboring tope
Of mango trees. ! walked over to the
sacred shade, and there, standing up
right against pillar Of masonry, was q
fakir. Like all these sanity persouages.
he was extremely dirty. His hair
worked up into rope-enda with grease
and dust. hung nearly to his waist; his
body, stark naked. was painted with q
gray pigment; but to exaggerate the
skeleton idea. the ribs, chest bones and
ankles were "picked out" in yellow
ochre. One eye was wide open; over the
other drocpcd paralyzed eyelid. The
mouth was wide open, md out Of q
corner were aprouting several blades of
corn. His hands were clinohed and his
uails, l was told, were growing through
the palms Of his hands. He had been,
moreover--I am still only quoting what
was said--in the "trance" in which
saw him for two months. In spite Of
all that have read and heard about
these ecstatic Jogis, ! ventured to be
skeptical. But offered an oblstion ot
copper coins at the holy mans shrine,
round which, in pious assemblnge, stood

little dues Of wheat and OIL" He
may have been an imposter, but it struck
me as very dreary form of imposition
indeed. All alone there, under the
dusty trees, with the shrilling Of the
kites in ones ears all day long and at
night the dismal company of ribald
jackals. London Society.
